King Frederick IV of Naples (1496- †1504) King of Portugal, probably
Manuel I (1495- †1521)
Edict for the Expulsion of Jews 1496-1497
But concerning the contrary argument, namely, that the king of Portugal
could compel the relatives of this infant and the infant to be
baptized without the consent of the parents, as Guido de Baysio argued in
his commentary to Gratian. Guido's reason was that Jews were slaves of
the king.
But in spite of the opinions of so many men, the small children of Jews
cannot be baptized if the parents are unwilling.
